Sidekick.nvim is nice, you get a "real" terminal window on the side with many different agents to choose from.
replyEither opencode, claude, gemini, copilot, basically most that are relevant :D
Its a pretty light connection-layer, so it helps with sending context.
FWIW, it's also made by Folke, the same developer who made lazy.nvim and snacks.nvim, as well as some other high-quality plugins.
replyJust open a terminal split/tab and use claude there. The neovim buffer will update real-time.
replyCodeCompanion.nvim is a pretty nice plugin. I use that for quick stuff and opencode in the embedded terminal for larger tasks.
replyMentioned elsewhere, but
reply:term claude
In a split goes a long way for me!
Yes tab split, neovim on the left, companion on the right, or different tabs. The plugin codecompanion.nvim is also great. I use it for common tasks. Like:
replyvaf (visual around function) <space>ad (leader key add docstring).
And it documents the functions with my system prompt instructions for what good docstings should look like.
